## org.mule.transport
Class AbstractMessageRequester

    java.lang.Object
      org.mule.transport.AbstractConnectable
          org.mule.transport.AbstractMessageRequester

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ExceptionListener, Disposable, Initialisable, Startable, Stoppable, Connectable, MessageRequester, MessageRequesting

Direct Known Subclasses:
  AxisMessageRequester, CxfMessageRequester, FileMessageRequester, FtpMessageRequester, HttpClientMessageRequester, JdbcMessageRequester, JmsMessageRequester, RetrieveMessageRequester, TcpMessageRequester, UdpMessageRequester, UnsupportedMessageRequester, VMMessageRequester, XmppMessageRequester

    public abstract class AbstractMessageRequester

extends AbstractConnectable
implements MessageRequester

The Message Requester is used to explicitly request messages from a message channel or resource rather than subscribing to inbound events or polling for messages. This is often used programatically but will not be used for inbound endpoints configured on services.

Constructor Detail

### AbstractMessageRequester

    public AbstractMessageRequester(InboundEndpoint endpoint)

Method Detail

### initialise

    public final void initialise()
                          throws InitialisationException

  Description copied from interface: `Initialisable`
  Method used to perform any initialisation work. If a fatal error occurs during initialisation an `InitialisationException` should be thrown, causing the Mule instance to shutdown. If the error is recoverable, say by retrying to connect, a `RecoverableException` should be thrown. There is no guarantee that by throwing a Recoverable exception that the Mule instance will not shut down.

  Specified by:
    `initialise` in interface `Initialisable`
  Overrides:
    `initialise` in class `AbstractConnectable`
  Throws:
    `InitialisationException` - if a fatal error occurs causing the Mule instance to shutdown
    `RecoverableException` - if an error occurs that can be recovered from

### dispose

    public final void dispose()

  Description copied from class: `AbstractConnectable`
  Template method to destroy any resources held by the Message Dispatcher

  Specified by:
    `dispose` in interface `Disposable`
  Overrides:
    `dispose` in class `AbstractConnectable`

### request

    public final MuleMessage request(long timeout)
                              throws Exception

  Make a specific request to the underlying transport

  Specified by:
    `request` in interface `MessageRequesting`
  Parameters:
    `timeout` - the maximum time the operation should block before returning. The call should return immediately if there is data available. If no data becomes available before the timeout elapses, null will be returned
  Returns:
    the result of the request wrapped in a MuleMessage object. Null will be returned if no data was available
  Throws:
    `Exception` - if the call to the underlying protocol causes an exception

### getWorkManager

    protected WorkManager getWorkManager()

  Specified by:
    `getWorkManager` in class `AbstractConnectable`

### getEndpoint

    public InboundEndpoint getEndpoint()

  Specified by:
    `getEndpoint` in interface `MessageRequester`
  Overrides:
    `getEndpoint` in class `AbstractConnectable`
  Returns:
    the endpoint used for requesting events

### doRequest

    protected abstract MuleMessage doRequest(long timeout)
                                      throws Exception

  Make a specific request to the underlying transport

  Parameters:
    `timeout` - the maximum time the operation should block before returning. The call should return immediately if there is data available. If no data becomes available before the timeout elapses, null will be returned
  Returns:
    the result of the request wrapped in a MuleMessage object. Null will be returned if no data was avaialable
  Throws:
    `Exception` - if the call to the underlying protocal cuases an exception
